I just got busted making Easter baskets. now what.

i was in the garage w/ the door closed. i heard my 8 yr old outside the door so I came back into the home. he asked me to go outback & watch him shoot the bb gun. so i did. then the little snot said he'd be right back and casually went into the house. i caught him with the garage door open. he had seen all 3 baskets for him & his brothers. now what?

he still believes in the E bunny,santa, etc.

should i go back out & get an additional choc bunny or toy from the E bunny himself?

i had put all that together by that age and went about finding out how to "prove" it was my parents. so he probably already had his doubts...why else would he have planned that whole thing just to see what you were doing in the garage? id tell him the truth & then tell him if he tells his siblings the truth he will be "too old" for a basket (its what my mom said to me about Santa haha).

or continue it by just saying what i told my 4 year old when she saw the plastic eggs in my closet...the Easter Bunny drops stuff off early so parents can help b/c he gets so busy this time of year.
